Session Goal

The session aimed to create comprehensive templates for automated shift scheduling, specifically focusing on 12x36 work patterns, using various tools and technologies.

Key Activities

  • Developed a template for managing shifts inspired by the PlantΓ£o FΓ‘cil app, including CSV specifications, example data, a Python script for conflict detection, and an SQLite schema.
  • Created a 90-day shift schedule template for a 12x36 work pattern in Excel, with separate sheets for schedule, staff, and instructions.
  • Utilized Pandas for data manipulation to automate the scheduling process and exported the results to Excel.

Achievements

  • Successfully generated templates for shift scheduling using Python and Excel, providing detailed instructions for usage and customization.
  • Enabled automation of shift assignments, enhancing efficiency in creating and managing work schedules.

Pending Tasks

  • Further development options for the PlantΓ£o FΓ‘cil inspired template, such as integrating with FastAPI or expanding the SQLite schema for more complex scheduling scenarios.
